After "failing" to win every racew he entered, pre-Olympics media darling and apparent meathead Ryan Lochte has become the official punching bag of the Olympics

•Michael Phelps out-dueled Ryan Lochte in the 200-meter individual medley to win his 16th Olympic gold and 20th medal overall. A heartbroken Lochte told reporters that he was really sad to finish second, since the other swimmers told him the gold medal is the only one with chocolate inside, and he still can't get the foil off of his 400 IM gold.

It only took one week to run out of the 70,000 condoms supplied to Olympic Village during the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000.

And during the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, 100,000 condoms were ordered for the athletes, but that still was not quite enough. The frequent usage of the condoms is just one side effect of the wild, all-night parties that go down in the Olympic Village, which is supposedly a hotbed of sex, drugs and gold medals. Or at least, that is the claim made by the anonymous author of the new salacious tell-all The Secret Olympics. The author claims to be a former British Olympian himself, giving him firsthand experience to all the secret escapades that go down in the very private and heavily guarded village.

The official Olympic regulations state that alcohol and drugs are banned from the village during the competition; however, the author maintains that it is incredibly easy for the contestants to sneak booze and other drugs into the villages. According to the author, although many of the activities that go down in the village are not sanctioned, they are kept quiet as to not sully the reputable image of the Olympics.

It is not hard to understand why so many condoms are needed during this 17-day competition. The village itself is its own Mt. Olympus, filled with our version of the gods: healthy, incredibly fit athletes in their prime.

For anyone wondering why the Olympic Village needs 100,000 condoms, Ryan Lochte’s mom has an answer: her son. The swimmer’s mother, Ike Lochte, revealed that her son likes one-night stands, preferring casual flings to the hassle of a monogamous relationship.

In an interview with Today, Mama Lochte said that her son spends so much time focusing on his career that he doesn’t have time to maintain a committed relationship. She said, “He goes out on one-night stands. He's not able to give fully to a relationship because he's always on the go.”

to anyone who would actually type those things and mean them, they are jackholes. but (and i will have to confer with wallace108 on this) wouldnt the people actually saying these things actually be gun rights supporters, pretending to be left wing anti-gun activists, in an attempt to spear them and paint them as kooks? to avoid this thread from being hijacked, i will leave that question as arhetorical one. the olympic games and the sportsmen and women in them is a perfect example of why i love the art of shooting.

the argument in the tweets above says farmers and ranchers should be slaughtered as well.

Heavy Burden on Athletes Takes Joy Away From China’s Olympic Success

A tide of self-doubt and introspection about the human costs of China’s Olympic prowess has arisen amid worries that the nation’s draconian sports system is sometimes producing damaged goods. Floundering athletes can even be cast aside after their careers are over — a point driven home last year when a former gold medal gymnast was found begging on the streets of Beijing. According to the state media, 240,000 retired athletes are grappling with injuries, poverty and unemployment.
